P uerto Rico's rich history, indigenous wildlife, surreal scenery, and tropical climate make it the perfect U.S. destination. Nestled atop a 300-foot cliff in Fajardo, the Waldorf Astoria's El Conquistador Resort towers over its very own private island. With breathtaking views in every direction and a commanding presence, it's not hard to see why this stunning property earned the name "El Conquistador," meaning "The Conqueror." Just 31 miles from San Juan, El Conquistador spans over 500 acres and shares its grounds with some of the most exotic creatures you'll find on the island. This five-star resort overlooks both the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, making for some unimaginable views. As you walk through the impeccable grounds, you will find four freshwater pools, 23 restaurants, a par 72 golf course, and a private boat that takes guests to the beautiful Palomino Island. The 100-acre island includes traditional water sports, horseback riding, and a hike that encompasses both the nature and beauty of the island. VUE ON TRAVEL V U E N J . C O M 107
